The South Carolina Application for Settlement & Accounting of Subsequent Administration is a form used by the executor or administrator of an estate to settle and account for the financial affairs of the estate. It is used to document all transactions related to the administration of the estate, including payments made to creditors, distributions to beneficiaries, and expenses incurred. The form is available through the South Carolina Department of Revenue and must be filed with the probate court. There are two types of the South Carolina Application for Settlement & Accounting of Subsequent Administration: the Initial Application and the Final Application. The Initial Application is used to provide an overview of the estate's financial affairs, and the Final Application is used to account for any financial changes that have occurred since the initial filing. Both applications must be approved by the probate court before the executor or administrator can close the estate.
